"We urge people to get out and visit some of our pantries. Ask them if they need help or assistance in volunteer help," said Jason Aldrich, communications and PR manager at West Ohio Food Bank. "You can always go to our website, wofb.org and find out information that way. Again, we're always constantly looking for people to volunteer and help us out."

Aldrich says they will also accept monetary donations for the fight to stop hunger.
